Summary
This paper gives a brief summary of international evidence for the effects of transport on health, as outlined by two background papers to the Public Health Advisory Committee (PHAC).

This work is a component of the PHAC’s project on health impact assessment, which uses transport as an example of a sector outside of health that has significant impacts on health. The project has focused on land transport (including walking and cycling) rather than transport by sea or air.
